If we lose this one, it will be embarrassing.

So this game doesn't air on local TV for you guys?

Why? I don't want to sound like a dick, but the grizzlies are a below 500 team, losing to a bad team wouldn't be ''embarrassing''.

The Nets have (had) a road losing streak. Didn't mean to sound derogatory towards your team.

Tuned in late to this one to view the Grizzlies blowing another one. What is going on? Can anyone update me on this game?

Total hook on that one....A little bs there. But, I guess it is a makeup call after Rudy goal tended.

Nice foul Vujacic.....why is he even playing this late in the game?

Grizz give Nets third road win of the year!!!!

I have officially given up on this team. Usually when this happens, they go on a huge run and make the playoffs though. So go figure.

Absolutely disgusted with this team.

Rudy's gone back to iso jumper chucking the last 10 to 15 games

Yeah, he was awful tonight. And, Marc and crew were soft inside.

Fail. What is it with the Grizz laying an egg when casual fans actually show up for the game?

Under the glass half full category

Maybe this embarrassing loss will force Heisley into action prior to the trade deadline? (since he is the one that makes the decisions)

The Grizz worked out two wing players Larry Hughes and Flip Murray on Monday. Both natural position is shooting guard which the Grizz are currently stacked at. The only way bringing in either would make sense is you are about lose depth at the position due to some transaction and be left with younger players at the position. This is grasping at straws, I know but what else do we really have.

Flip Murray and Larry Hughes are not in the league right now? That is shocking.

we have one backup PF, no backup SF or Center and they bringing in more guards????????


I personally don't care about losing this game but it is a blow to the home crowd. I thought the game was winnable though and Hollins worst coached game that I've watched so far. Rudy Gay is really not proving worth his contract. They showed the stats between him and Randolph before the game and he avg like 2 points more than Randolph and nothing else but a bunch of poor misses and no free throw opportunities. Randolph on the other hand averages 6 rebounds more than Gay. His position has long been the glory hole. and they fracked it.

Rudy plays 40 mpg and avg 20.6 ppg... that's not good enough. I'll give him that you can have an off game or 2 and the team should be good enough to carry. But this is a negative trend.

The Nets are one team I like to watch outside of Boston and Memphis. I am not surprised at the outcome of this game. I'd MUCH RATHER be surprised at an outcome that had Memphis on top though. They got too many flaws.

So Sam Young has fallen out of favor?

Sam Young is a pretty decent backup SG... but I thinK OJ Mayo has that role locked up for now.

Oh, I was pretty sure that we gave him time at backup SF.
